"Ji Xing put King Ling under house arrest at the beginning and forced him to abdicate, and then the generals led by Ji Yuan, the Duke of Lingcheng, controlled the government of Xuanyuan Kingdom, and all the ministers who did not agree with their political opinions were arrested by them on various bizarre charges, or imprisoned, or exiled, or beheaded, your teacher Xiao Yuanzhi was sentenced to the crime of collaborating with the enemy and treason, all the men of the Xiao family were executed, the female dependents were sold into the Qinglou, and the old people and children were exiled to the Northern Wilderness......" Wu Qian stood aside and told Ji Zheng what had happened in Xuanyuan Country these days.

"Ridiculous. Ji Zheng slammed the table hard, and bang, the bamboo table let out a dissatisfied roar.

"This is something that happened a month ago. Wu Qian was unmoved and said lightly.

"A month ago?"

"You've been decadent in the Purple Shade for a month. ”

"What day is it?"

"The twenty-sixth day of the first month of the three hundred and fifty-third years of the sea period. ”

"Has it been so long?"

"Yes. ”

"What about the father, didn't he depose the third prince?"

"The Spirit King Died Suddenly......"

"Fart. Ji Zheng had never said such vulgar words, but after hearing the news, he was still so angry that he spoke rudely.

"Could it be that His Highness also thinks that the death of the Spirit King is very strange?"

"My father's body was fine, how could he die suddenly, and when he sent me south, he personally told me that he wanted to ask the king for the elixir of life, how could he want to die?"

The wolf's ambition can be punished by everyone.

"Elixir of life?" Wu Qian heard Ji Zheng talk about for the first time, in the information he got, the reason why the Spirit King sent Ji Zheng to the south, but there was no such statement, and then he thought of the wizard who hid in Ning Que Palace to teach the Spirit King, was he not a dark wizard? Only the dark wizard was full of desire for this thing. If the Spirit King was bewitched by the dark wizard, then the Xuanyuan Sword would be dangerous.

Wu Qian suddenly thought of what was wrong.

"Yes, that's what my father said at the time, and then I asked the king of Fuyu, and he said that there is no elixir of life in the human realm, and if there is, only the heavenly realm has this medicine. Ji Zheng's expression was gloomy, after hearing the news of his father's death, he thought that there was one less relative in the world, and his heart was extremely sad, even if the spirit king did not wait to see him everywhere, the prince was very unfamiliar on weekdays, but he was finally a father and son, and now that he is dead, how can Ji Zheng not mourn.

"Yes, there is no elixir in this world, and the Spirit King doesn't know, that's why I told you this. ”

"What the alliance leader said is extremely true. Ji Zheng stood up and paced with his hands behind his back, now he was fully awake and remembered the past clearly, "According to the king, the king told me that birth, old age, sickness and death are the normal state of people, the law of nature, throughout the ages, except for those who have become immortals, everyone dies when they reach the age limit, no one can avoid it, and death is just going to the underworld, quietly waiting for the next reincarnation, although the memory is erased, but from a certain point of view, this is also a kind of eternal life." ”

Wu Qian couldn't help nodding, the idea of Fu Zhi was also what he thought, poor black wizard insisted on fighting against the way of heaven for the sake of so-called eternal life, it was really stupid.

"In any case, the Spirit King has passed away forever, please mourn your highness. ”

"Thank you for your concern. ”

"Your Highness, why should you be polite, you still have to take care of your body, you have to avenge the Spirit King, and take back the throne that belongs to you. ”

"Yes...... But I couldn't do anything at all. Ji Zheng laughed to himself.

Li Qing and Sun Yun died in battle, Shang Zhu was nowhere to be found, and the minister who accompanied him to the south turned his back on him and fled all the way, and now he has really become the lonely person often mentioned by the Spirit King during his lifetime.

"We have a way to help you if you want to. ”

"The alliance leader said this to send wizards......"

"No, the Witch Alliance will never be reduced to a weapon for one person to dominate the world. Wu Qian couldn't help but shake his head, his long black beard swaying from side to side with his head, "We yearn for freedom, yearn for peace, oppose war, and peace in the world is the long-cherished wish of tens of thousands of our wizards who struggle day and night." ”

"Then you said you would help me. Ji Zheng didn't dare to express his dissatisfaction and muttered.

Wu Qian didn't answer, but asked Ji Zheng: "Let me ask you, have you really made up your mind?"

Ji Zheng was gloomy, he still couldn't make up his mind at this time, he still felt that he couldn't get out of the absurd love affair with Ting Yan.

When Wu Qian saw his expression, he guessed the answer, wasn't all the decadence he had been so decadent all these days just for a woman who was opposed to him?

Wu Qian sighed and said: "It's true that Tingyan is a fox demon, it's not wrong that you are a descendant of Emperor Xuanyuan, it is your duty to kill demons and demons, you are born to stand on the opposite side, you are destined from birth, you can't choose." ”

Ji Zheng was still silent.

"I won't blame you for falling in love, it's human nature, and I won't ridicule you for loving beauties and not for loving the country, but you made yourself decadent for a demon woman, I don't think it's worth it. Think about your teacher, for the sake of the people of the world, fight against the evil forces to the end, I would rather die than give in, Xiao Yuanzhi's Taifu I respect, he is upright, and now he has fallen into the tragic situation of being ruined, I am very sorry. ”

Ji Zheng lowered his head, still silent.

"A gentleman is also a gentleman, and he does what he is right, and what he does not do is known. Wu Qian suddenly read it out.

"The way will be done and the life will be done, and the road will be abolished and the life will be also lost. Ji Zheng read it out, and suddenly raised his head and looked at Wu Qian.

This is what Xiao Yuanzhi's teacher told him before parting, he didn't know why Wu Qian knew about it, but he remembered the bitterness hidden in his smile when he said goodbye when he parted, maybe he knew that the final outcome was like this, but didn't he do the same?

Do you know you can't do it?

Know that you can't do it!

Ji Zheng thought of Xiao Yuanzhi's teacher asking himself so at the beginning, and then he answered so firmly, and now he wants to come back, he thinks it's really ironic, he lost the belief that he pursued for so long because of a girl, but he is worthy of the dead teacher, worthy of his father who was forced to death by Ji Yuan?

Thinking of this, Ji Zheng couldn't hold back any longer, and clear tears flowed down.

Wu Qian looked up to the sky and sighed, and strode away.

The cry grew louder and louder, and then it resounded throughout the Purple Valley.

The next day, Li Yun came to the Ziyou hut and saw Ji Zheng sitting in the house, with the book of "Holy Ancestor Commandments" on the table, Ji Zheng was looking at the book in a daze, so that Li Yun didn't notice that he was coming.

"You're looking for me?" the smile on Liyun's face was a little thicker than before.

After these days of getting along, Ji Zheng slowly became normal, yesterday Wu Qian went back and said that Ji was looking for him, Li Yun guessed that he could almost complete the task, and his mood was naturally happy.

"Brother Liyun, is what the leader of the Wuqian Alliance said true?" Ji Zheng looked at Li Yun, grabbed his hand and asked impatiently.

Li Yun was stunned for a moment, then reacted, thinking that Wu Qian had told him about Xuanyuan Kingdom, he took a deep breath: "Hmm." ”

"You know everything?"

"Yes. ”

"Why don't you tell me?" Ji Zheng clenched his fists tightly, and the green tendons on the back of his hands bulged.

"The leader of the Wuqian Alliance didn't let him say. ”

"Why?"

"Did it work? Li Yun cut off, "As far as you were drunk a few days ago, what is the use of telling you when you are sober." You are good, you are full of drink, sleep and wake up and continue to drink, this day is more comfortable than a pig. ”

Li Yun's words were extremely vicious, just like in the cold winter, he stripped Ji Zheng's clothes clean, and then threw him into the ice and snow.

"But you shouldn't have hidden it from me, something so big has happened. "Ji Zheng hated.

"Yes, but we all thought you only had that demon girl in your heart, and you didn't care about the rest. I can't see it, Liyun is usually lazy, he doesn't care about anything, but when he speaks, he talks like a needle, every word he says, it's like stabbing Ji Zheng's heart with a needle, and then he understands why Liyun's nickname is called Mianli Hidden Needle.

Ji Zheng had already stood up, but after hearing Li Yun's words, the anger in his heart suddenly leaked, and he sat back heavily.

Although it was hard to say, what Li Yun said was right, Ji Zheng was powerless to refute, thinking that a few days ago, it was just for a demon girl who had not known her for a long time, so he was silent.

"What should I do?"

"You asked the wrong person, you are the prince of Xuanyuan Kingdom. ”

"But I don't really know what to do. My father died, my teacher died, Tingyan left me, Shang Zhu Taibu was missing, Li Qing and Sun Yun were killed by the barbarians, and now I am alone. ”

"So you didn't think about avenging them?"

"Revenge?"

"Hehe, didn't Xiao Yuanzhi's wife teach you? ”

"But Ji Xing and I are brothers.......

"If you don't kill him, just wait for him to kill you, unless you hide in the Purple Valley for the rest of your life. ”

"No, we don't have a deep hatred. ”

"I don't understand how you are the prince, it's a miracle that you've been sitting stupidly for so long. Li Yun was very emotional, Xiao Yuanzhi and they inevitably protected this prince too well, so good that he couldn't see the dark side of this world.

Ji Zheng was gloomy, of course he understood that a country could not have two masters, but he just didn't want to believe that Ji Xing would kill his eldest brother if he took the throne.

"I originally thought that you were indulging in feelings, because you valued love and righteousness, because that demon clan was your first love, and it was difficult to get out for a while, but now it seems that you are a naïve big boy, you don't know the sinister world, if it weren't for Shang Zhu to protect you all the way, I don't know if you can go to the Witch Alliance. The more Li Yun spoke, the more excited he became, and this time what he said was even more excessive.

Ji Zheng understood that Li Yun was for his good, so he said so seriously, but his mind was really blank at this time, and he couldn't think of anything: "Brother Li Yun, what do you say I should do? ”

"It turns out that you still know about this, and you think about whether there is any other way. ”

"By the way, we can go back to the King of Fu and ask him to help us with advice. Ji Zheng had an idea and jumped up.

"That's impossible, the king is dead. ”

"Dead?"

"Hmm. ”

"Really dead?"

"I didn't lie to you, and the country of Tongbai has also perished. ”

"How come?" Ji Zheng couldn't believe his ears and kept shaking his head, "The nickname of the king is a last resort, and he knows how to avoid evil best, how can he not count himself as in danger?"

"No matter how powerful he is, he's just a person. Li Yun smiled helplessly, thinking that he was going south for the dazzling title of King Fu and wanted to take refuge in him, but he didn't expect him to die at the hands of his nephew, and even the king of Tongbai Kingdom also changed hands.

"Who killed him?"

"Fu Ji. ”

Ji Zheng seemed to have seen this person, at the exorcism ceremony, but the person stood in the corner, and when he listened to Princess Biluo's introduction, he smiled at him, and the situation was probably like this when they met for the first time, Ji Zheng didn't pay much attention to it at that time, but remembered that he was quite handsome, as if he was wearing a purple robe.

"What about Princess Biluo?"

"Nowhere to be found. ”

"Missing?"

"The last time someone saw her was in the misty swamp, those Ze spirits said that she had entered Yushan with two teenagers, and the delusion of the demon clan could testify, and then she disappeared, and there is no news of her until today. Li Yun said that this information was naturally revealed to him by Wu Qian.

"How can this be?" Ji Zheng was stunned.

Unexpectedly, only a month has passed, and the place outside the Purple Valley has undergone earth-shaking changes, the Xuanyuan Kingdom has changed hands, the father has died, the Tongbai Kingdom has been destroyed, the king has been killed in battle, and the whereabouts of Princess Biluo are unknown, what is wrong with this world?

"I think it's better to be selfish, even if you don't think about the world, you have to think about yourself. ”

Li Yun saw that Ji Zheng was looking at himself blankly, and probably didn't understand what he meant, so he said: "If there is chaos today, there are capable people who run for the world, and incompetent people who are wise to protect themselves." Think about it, if the war continues to burn like this, if the Xuanyuan Kingdom launches a war with the outside world, the entire Kyushu will definitely be dragged into the war, and after Fu Ji rectifies the Tongbai Kingdom, he will definitely stretch out his claws to the other countries of the Western Continent. If this fight continues, no one in the Shanhai Continent will be spared, even the Demon Clan, the Feather Human Clan, and the Barbarian Race will inevitably be involved in the war, and in such a situation, how long do you think Baigu Peak can maintain peace? How long can the Witch Alliance protect you?"

When Li Yun said this, he saw that Ji was listening intently, thinking that he had already heard it in his heart, and felt a little comforted, and continued: "Are you willing to hide behind others all your life and be protected by others? If you are an ordinary ordinary person, it is fine, but you are the descendant of Emperor Xuanyuan, and you have the blood of Emperor Heaven flowing in your body, and you should have done your best for the peace of the world, instead of lying in the bamboo forest and numbing yourself with alcohol every day, and making a mess for a girl who is not worthy of it at all, so, what kind of man is it?"

Ji Zheng lowered his head, his eyes red.

Li Yun did not relent, and said directly, this time, Ji Zheng must be woken up fiercely: "Only a coward will cry for love, maybe many years later, when you look back at your decadent years, you will also laugh unconsciously, laughing at yourself for being so stupid at the beginning, and actually loving and living for a demon girl." But we won't blame you, this is the stage that every man must go through when he grows up, and I hope that this breakup will not only be a blow to you, but also a gain. ”

"I won't say more, if you haven't figured it out yourself, no matter how much I say, it's nonsense. Li Yun said and stood up, "Time waits for no one, if you figure it out, go to the Wuqian Alliance Leader earlier, he can help you." ”

Li Yun walked as he spoke, and when he reached the door, he stopped, turned his back to Ji Zheng, and said, "I never felt that you were alone. The leader of the Wuqian Alliance has told us more than once that as long as you awaken the bloodline of the Heavenly Emperor and are willing to restore peace to the Shanhai Continent, then the entire Wuqian Alliance will fight for you. ”
